View 1 RepliesDespite using many sql databases before, I've never actually tried to develop an app with a database in the App_Data directory.
It's a small WCF service project, which has a sql express 2008 r2 database.
Working in VS there are no problems, I thought it would be as easy as deploying to a server (win 2008 with sql 2008 r2 installed) and it would just work. But it would appear not.
In the web.config, the connection string which uses |Data Directory| in the connection string.
I read here that |Data Directory| only works in VS, but looking at other articles on the web that doesn't seem to be the case.
I have (for the sake of this) given everyone modify rights on the app_data dir on the server.
I deployed using the package feature in VS 2010.
install Visual Studio 2010 (with ASP.net framework 4.0) and when I try to install SQL Server Express 2008 I get an error message telling me that .NET framework 3.5 SP1 is required.I know in the installation of VS 2010 SQL Server Express is installed. However I need to have the management studio install. I have tried installing both the full version of SQL Server Express 2008 and the front end management studio for SQL Server 2008nly.
View 2 RepliesI already have SQL Server (Developer Edition) installed on my computer. I'm learning ASP.NET by going through some video tutorials. These tutorials use VWD 2008 Express so I'm going to install that version (instead of 2010). Will the VWD installation recognize my existing version of SQL Server and connect to it properly after the install? I read something about VWD Express not working correctly with SQL Server Developer Edition.
View 3 RepliesWhen I try to install the ASP.NET MVC 3 Beta on my server using WebPI, it wants to install Visual Web Developer Express 2010 and SQL Server 2008 Express R2 as prerequisites.I don't want either of those installed on my server. However, when I try to run the
standalone installer, I get the error "Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3 does not apply", presumably because I don't have the prerequisites.Why is an IDE required to run ASP.NET MVC3? Are there manual or alternate ways to install the runtime only?
I used that Microsoft Windows installer and installed visual web developer 2008 express and sql server 2008 so I thought. visual web developer works find.
When I look at sql server 2008 all I see is import export data link.
and the configuration tools.
In the configuration tools I see the following:
sql server configuration manager.
sql server error and usage reporting
sql server installation center.
So I figure sql server 2008 was not fully installed.d
I open the installation center and went to system configuration checker but I get a dialog
box that say browse for sql server 2008 installation media.
my system i am having sql server 2005 standard edition.now i installed sql server 2008 r2 express edition and i am getting error like.."the service did not respond to the start or contorl request in a timely fashion"...

In Windows 7, I get this error message when installing VWD2010 Express "Visual Web Developer 2010 Express This product did not install successfully." This is the log file from Web Platform Install 2.0

This may seem simple but for some reason I am having a problem.
I am trying to install SQL Server Express 2005 on Windows XP Service Pack 2 which has not been online for a while.
Everytime I've tried it has told me that it doesn't meet the minimum requirements. I am not sure if its because I am sick and dazed out.
Can SQL Server 2010 Express Edition install on Windows 7 Home Basic Edition?
Any official links of microsoft website which states that are great.
I am getting an error saying "failed to install VWDExpress 2010" below is the log.
I am trying to install the same using Web Platform Installer.
Below is the log of the failure.

I follow the instruction of installing a new feature with the application SQLManagementStudio_x86_ENU.exe and I get to a fail telling me that VS 2008 needs to be upgraded to SP1.
This I have done several times with the final message saying successfully installed yet 'About' shows only
Microsoft Visual Studio 2008
I had VS 2010 RC installed on my machine. Uninstalled it and wanted to install VWD 2010.
I installed Web Platform Installer as instructed on the download site, but there is no VWD Express under any tabs...including Tools.
FYI: I did install VWD 2010 using WPI on my other machine but somehow on this machine WPI does not show this option.
Not sure if VS2010 RC was installed on this machine and that's the issue.
Now i am downloading .iso image for VS 2010 Express that has VWD express.
i have installed sql server express using windows authentication mode,but i have a doubt if we want to acces the data from front end we type like uid="",pwd="",servername="" but when using windows auth what credentials we have to give or there is no need of any details?

View 2 RepliesI have SQL server management studio express install on one machine.
I am able to connect to that machine or able to ping that machine from my computer.
I have code which return me the SQL server instances on same network. Using that I am able to get that SQL server instance. I have configured SQL express to access remote connection. i.e.
Configured SQL express to accept named / TCP IP instance connection. Started Browser service.
My machine settings My machine has been configured to set dynamic IP address using DHCP protocol
When I am trying to connect to above mentioned SQL server I am getting error that "Failed to connect SERVER NAME\SQLEXPRESS".
But if I configured my machine with manual IP address and default gateway I am able to connect to same SQL server.
I got the solution to connect to that server but I don't know why I am facing such problem. And also let me know that is the solution I am using is correct or not?

View 4 RepliesI know the question has been submitted previously. I am a newbie to those tools. If I access to the database by way of management studio both under the windows integrated authentication and sqlserver authentication, everything works like wonder, but VWD just pop up a warming when I tried to log in the DB, you know, I was not allowed to sign in under sqlserver mode. then it alarmed me that it failed in connecting to the default DB file with my windows account.
View 2 RepliesI have been using VWD2010 Express for a website that I am working on. Due to a delay in implementing the 4.0 framework at the hosting service that I use, I need to finish up with VWD2008 Express. Is there a simple way to save my project so that it is compatible with 2008?
View 2 RepliesI'd like to learn more about MS Business Intelligence Development Studio. I'm doing this on my own, so I'd like to keep my software costs down. It's my understanding that BIDS comes with the download for SQL Server, but is used in Visual Studio (by creatign a BIDS project). Is this accurate? My question is - Is it possible to get a working copy of BIDS by downloading SQL Server Express and Visual Studio Express?
View 2 RepliesI've noticed that ASP.NET automatically creates an App_Data folder for you whenever you make a new webforms application.
Since all of my data comes from a SQL Server 2005 database server, is there any reason to actually keep this folder?
If there is a self contained web app, let's use the Screw Turn Wiki as an example, that utilizes the App_Data to store the MDF, is there any way another web app, living in the same domain, can also use that MDF?
Example IIS Setup:
http://wiki.domain.com | c:webwiki | port 80
http://www.domain.com | c:website | port 80
My WWW web app would like to pull some data from the WIKI app. Without moving the MDF to a full fledged SQL Server is there a way to do this? Also note, the WIKI app is an installed app so I don't have access to its source.
i tried to add sql/server database file to app_data and i got this error
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.

im using sqlserver 2005 and VS2008 +i tried to amke remote cpnnection and restart the services but with no use
